In this paper, a poly(vinyl acetate) (PVAc) adhesive in the form of a film was considered to be a composite. Its mechanical properties changed with filler addition owing to the interactions at the polymer/filler interface. The experimental results were fitted with various theoretical and empirical equations that describe the dependence of mechanical properties on filler volume fraction. In this way,...
